The Union of Progressive Zionists at the University of
Michigan seeks to create debate and inspire action which further our
goal of a just, lasting, 2-state based peace in Israel and Palestine. We
run out of the UM Hillel. We host discussions, bring in speakers, show
movies, and run cultural and social justice oriented programming with
other Jewish and Muslim groups.

Get involved! Read our core
beliefs, come to an event or a meeting, browse our webpage, or

Thanks for checking us out.

The UPZ National is a broad network of campus organizations whose
main goal is to create a voice for Progressive Zionist students - those
who support Israel as well as a two-state solution and an end to the
occupation. The UPZ was created to fill a void that exists on North
American college campuses today, where the only opinions that can be
heard are either those of blind support for Israeli government policies,
or those who challenge Israel's right to exist.

The founding organizations of the Union of Progressive
Zionists - Hashomer Hatzair, Habonim Dror, Meretz USA, and the Labor
Zionist Alliance - have come together to build a national student
organization that will promote dialogue, activism, and community
building related to Israel and the ensuing conflict, to strengthen the
voice of peace activists both on a grassroots and national level.
Through speaker tours, conferences, and activism on both a local and
national level, we hope to create a forum for students who care about
Israel and believe in a just and peaceful resolution to the
Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
